Daniel, I disagree.  If you read back through all the bug's comments
you'll see that some of us are getting this email and it has nothing to
do with apt, that's just one instance that can trigger overlapping
anacrons.  The solution isn't to discard the error messages.  :-)

Title:
  start: Job is already running: anacron

Status in “anacron” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: anacron

  Every day cron sends me this email:

    Date: Sat, 17 Jul 2010 07:30:01 +1200
    From: Cron Daemon <root at hostname>
    To: root at hostname
    Subject: Cron <root at hostname> start -q anacron || :

    start: Job is already running: anacron

  I've tried to find out why it was running twice, but I could only find
  one copy of anacron in the cron directories...
